“Our Lord's descent from the holy heights of the Mount of Transfiguration was more than a physical return from greater to lesser altitudes; it was a passing from sunshine into shadow, from the effulgent glory of heaven to the mists of worldly passions and human unbelief; it was the beginning of His rapid descent into the valley of humiliation.” HumansPassionHeavenLordGreaterReturnHolyGloryShadowPassingPassingsHeightSunshineValleysWorldlyHumiliationRapidsOur LordMistDescentUnbeliefTransfiguration Book:Jesus the Christ Source: Jesus the Christ
“We have been told . . . that this life is a necessary part in the course of progression designed by our Father. We have been taught . . . to look upon these bodies of ours as gifts from God. . . . It has been declared in the solemn word of revelation, that the spirit and the body constitute the soul of man; and, therefore, we should look upon this body as something that shall endure in the resurrected state, beyond the grave, something to be kept pure and holy.” MenLifeShouldLooksHas BeensSoulStatesBodyLife IsSpiritCoursesFatherTaughtHolyPureEndureGravesThis LifeLook UpRevelationsOur FatherSolemnProgressionGift From God Author:James E.
